Emanuel Pinto took a Madeira’s cap to the set, symbol of a regional identity that he has pride. Rita Segarra travels through many cities, but was already certain that was the light of Lisbon thats he wanted to highlight. João Oliveira passed by the studio with his uniform with the well-known blue of TAP ME to point out on a map the capital of dinosaurs, his land, Lourinhã.

They have the first three testimonies of the video displayed in the birthday party of TAP, conducted with employees TAP.

In the context of the celebration of the 72nd anniversary of the Company, were announced the names of the planes of the fleet in the service of TAP Express. The eight ATR72 and the nine Embraer 190 currently in operation, as well as the new Embraer 195 that will arrive to TAP later this year, will have the names of all districts, Viana do Castelo to Faro, and of the autonomous regions.

TAP is approaching in this way even more of Portugal and of its regions and, represented by their faces - the Employees - presented a emotive video, to say the least.

The eyes of Sofia Almeida shine when she speaks of Braga, both as when she speaks of TAP and her role as "teacher" of new faces that arrive in the Company.

The production of footwear that is the signature of São João da Madeira was the point on the map that João Pedro Fernandes pointed out. On the other hand, what Coimbra is to the world and what is for the childhood of Vera Batista are different things, but equally important to point out.

Portugal “is” also gastronomy and that was not forgotten. Marta Augusto, Cabin Crew at the service of TAP Express, recalls the “pampilhos” of Santarém, and the eyes of Pedro Carapina when speaking of “ovos moles” of Aveiro dispense any explanation. The wines and gastronomy of Redondo did not fail to be mentioned by Sofia Nunes, and of her childhood in Cortiçal, Marina Cordeiro recalls the traditional “broa” which she cooked with her mother and her grandparents. From Óbidos, Guida dos Santos has a suggestion of a drink very interesting and Viana do Castelo, Bruno Santos makes a call that leaves everyone with water in their mouth. Finally, from Torrozelo, António Martins opens the appetite to lovers of “queijo da serra” and Victor Lisboa, from Vila Real, chooses one of the most attractive delicacies in the region.

Susana Tavares offered the production team a sweet from her region. The strips of candied orange involved in chocolate have the energy needed to continue to scroll through the country.

The enthusiasm of Ana Lúcia Manhãs of Cabeço de Vide, to participate in this video, was nothing less than contagious. The responsibility of representing their land and show their testimony to their grandmothers and her entire family is proof that the challenge to employees has reached its purpose.

The difficulty of Ricardo Vitorino was choosing what to say about Évora. Bernardo Fortuna knew very well what he wanted to focus about Termas de Monfortinho: that this is the most beautiful region in the country. José Silva reminded the student days in Bragança and Nuno Fernandes led the poetry to the studio to speak of Vila Franca de Xira. Joel Ferreira is from Viseu and has, without doubt, a sense of humor. The five working at TAP ME. The five are TAP and Portugal.

João Malo, Cabin Crew from Condeixa-a-Nova, was "convinced" to participate by Andrea Pinho, Flight Attendant from Alvarães. "This is very cool! Don't you want to represent your land?" Both participated. Colleagues and friends, are united by the colors of TAP and the desire to take Portugal to all corners of the world.

The identity of Portugal is made by people and is of people who speak Filipe Borges, Ponta Delgada, and Silvio do Ó, from Sines. About Vila Nova de Gaia, what Tiago Dias means to say to the world is that the beach of Senhor da Pedra is one of the most beautiful. Further south, in Beja, there is a special place for Edgar Gomes.

TAP is a family and inside create families. Ana Filipa Lança and Marco Lança brought Carminho. Three districts, two generations, one country.

Lastly, Filipa Gouveia said on her land, in Madeira, everything that many of those who live away from home feel: nostalgia.

The video "TAP embraces Portugal" already had over 7,500 views on YouTube and reached more than 120 thousand on Facebook. These results are everyone’s. All are to be congratulated. Remember the video here.
